Why, when you ask someone what a movie is about, do they always say who's in it? I mean, sometimes this is helpful, if the movie's been very hyped, and you just didn't happen to connect the name with the actual movie, and hearing the actors in it jogs your memory. But a lot of times it's like:

"What's it about?"
"Oh, Clint Eastwood is in it."
"Okay... So it involves a bitter old guy no one believes about something at one point. Could you be more specific?"

And it's even worse when it's NOT Clint Eastwood.

"It's got Goldie Hawn(sp?) in it."
"So...... yeah. That helps."

That was just annoying me the other day.
